Brine Shrimp

[basiab]

Brine shrimp eggs, $5 for enough eggs to fill a 35mm film case. And I will give you simple instructions to hatch them. This amount is enough to make about 50 batches. They make a great snack for your fish. Your carnivors will have a great time chasing them. Great for gobies, firefish, cardinals, royal grammas and small wrasses.

The $5 includes mailing it to you or you can save a buck and pick it up.
Just send me $5 and your address and I will send you the eggs. Get double the amount for $8.

For those who never tried brine shrimp, it is easy to hatch and really livens up your fish. And if you have a problem eater this will get him going.

If you want newlt hatched I can arrange that as well. But really I have a very easy method for anyone to hatch these critters and you do not need a lot of equipment or space.

what equipment do I need to hatch these guys?

 

[basiab]

If you follow my instructions all you need is a glass jar or plastic container with a at least a 4 inch opening.
Or you can go online and buy a number of hatching gadgets. But the only time you need that type of equipement is when you need a steady supply like for fry or dwarf sea horses. My system will work as long as you just need a few batches a week which is the way I use it. Brine shrimp has nutrition for a very short time (8-10 hours after hatching) after which you have to enrich them if you want to provide nutrition.

And what do you enrich them with?

And what do you enrich them with?

I don't bother with that, I feed them when they hatch and that's it. If you want to enrich you can use Selcon or other similar products.
There is lots of info online regarding hatching and enriching. I use a very simple process that takes very little space, time and is very uncomplicated.

I agree. they are a reaal treat to the fish. I am surprised more people do not try it. Maybe they are concerned that hatching is difficult. But as you can see, my simple instructions show how easy it is with no fuss nor equipment.

 

[basiab]

This is an easy way to get started without investing a lot of money before you decide if this is for you or not.
